T.J. Nertney Bottle

I found this bottle in a box that I won in an auction and was wondering what the age was and if it is worth anything. It readsT.J.Nertney Senate Sample Room 715 LaSalle St. Ottawa, ILL. Full 1/2 Pint

Hello,

It's pre-Prohibition, maybe 1910ish. Is there anything on the base?

Nurtney also manufactured trade stimulators & gaming devises.

I Agree 1890 to 1910 or 15. I would guess 25.00 to 50.00 but if you can find out more about what Senate Room was it may go for more. A little research.

there are a few tokens running around with TJN from ottawa as well and learned there was a saloon by that name ill have to research that a bit more I emailed this to a man who does digs for the historical society and he dated this bottle to 1905-1915 there was another style prior to this one and a later one as well. When I am in town will have to look up the address see what stands there today I believe the factory on columbus still stands but not sure. Now to find out a little bit more about TJ Nertney (thomas) and what is up with the senate room.

Nertney seems to have been quite the hustler. Scroll up a little, he is at 2 o'clock >>> Ottawa, Illinois in Nineteen Hundred
